Jenny said of the TV role:
“I feel like that inside. I always felt like one of the guys wearing, like, a Playboy bunny outfit. I was David Spade‘s buddy to begin with, so I was a natural fit, and I always felt like his brother. To play kind of the dude was almost too scary natural.”
It may have been scary, but the former View co-host revealed that her character was well-received by those who watched the episode!
Such a surprising piece of information — who knew Jenny could relate so much to Brandi!
